I AM IN NEED OF MONEY AND THIS IS THE LAST OF MY GREAT GUITAR COLLECTION. ALL THE OTHER STUFF WAS A LITTLE EASIER TO PART WITH. I HAD A D-28 MARQUIS, A COLLINGS D1-A, AND NUMEROUS OTHER ELECTRICS. ANYWAY I HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO TAKING PICKS JUST YET. THIS GUITAR HAS INDIAN ROSEWOOD BACK AND SIDES, THAT ACTUALLY LOOKS MORE EXOTIC . ADIRONDACK TOP. THIS ONE HAS TIGHT, TIGHT, GRAIN IN THE MIDDLE TO REAL WIDE OUTSIDE. IT ALSO HAS A BRAZILIAN HEADSTOCK OVERLAY THAT IS JUST AWESOME. IT GIVES THE GUITAR A NATURAL BLING LOOK TO IT. THERE IS NOT ONE SCRATCH ON THE GUITAR, EXCEPT THE PICKGUARD. I REALLY TOOK CARE OF THIS GUITAR . AS SOON AS I SELL THIS GUITAR AND DO THE RESPONSIBLE THING I WILL BE SAVING AND BUYING ANOTHER TDR MAYBE IN BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD. WELL IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW IT SOUNDS. THIS ONE WAS A LITTLE BETTER THAN THE BRAZILIANS I TESTED IT AGAINST. THESE GUITARS ARE THE MOST UNDER THE RADAR GUITARS I'VE EVER HEARD. I HAVE PLAYED ALOT OF POWERFUL, GREAT SOUNDING DREADS, SOME WERE VINTAGE SOME WERE NEW AND. IF I WAS TO SOME UP THE SOUND OF THESE. IT WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE A VINTAGE 40 OR 50'S MARTIN D-28. IT DEFINATLY HAS THAT SOUND AND FEEL. 2008 TDR 2500.00 AND IT'S YOURS GOOD LUCK.
Hello, Sorry to see anyone have to unload a really good guitar like this. I know you need cash so I am hesitant to ask if you are interested in making a trade. I have a D-18GE that is wonderful but have GASed over rosewood for quite awhile now. If interested, shoot me an email at ofawoo@aol.com I fully understand the need for cash though. Good luck.
